611.6 tory leir, Kansas May 16, 1951 Dear Mary Ann, Doesn't it seem like a terribly long time since Mrs Dunbar gathered us under her wing to teach us the A-B C's? That was in the fall of 1939 Remember the first morning we came to school, we d1dn't realize there were so manv other little boys and girls After a year with Mrs Dunbar we were advanced to Miss Braldwood's room That year new play ground equipment was installed and I think Miss Braid wood was quite discouraged with the task of trying to keep her darling little students off the equipment until it was properly installed And so Miss Braidwood with a sigh of relief promoted us to Miss McCoy's room There the girls learned that they were much too young to use lip stick, rouge, and eye shadow The boys learned they could use tooth paste instead of shaving cream and Pop's razor for a few years more Miss 0'Neal was ready to spend two years with us in the fifth and sixth grades scaldlng us with knowledge There learned that by fastening notes to your pencils and then loaning them to your friends, you could pass of pencils Next we were to be cleansed of our childish ways, and Miss Ruggles under took that task in the seventh grade She passed us to the eighth grade where Mrs Neely gave us the necessary information to enter high school Well, at last we were going to leave grade school We bid our teachers goodbye and went on our way When we entered high school we found out the difference three months made The day we graduated from grade school we felt big and grownup, but as we entered high school we felt as little and green as first graders Our freshman year was spent attracting attention and seeing who could blow the biggest bubble with their bubble gum When we were sophomores we spit out our bubble gum and began to grow up le began to realize more of the reality of life when one of our classmates was killed in an automobile accident We really grew up our Junior year when we presented our junior play, 'Scatterbra1nN, and gave the seniors a banquet Now we are seniors! We have given our play, 'Brother Goose' Many friendships were made the first day of school which still remain le did not realize then what an important phase of life we entered Maybe we do not fully realise it now, but some day we will This ends the history of the class of '51 As the years go by new faces will be seen and we will be but a part of the past and be forgotten, but we will never forget the days we spent at Weir H1 Your old classmate, 0 . we , notes easily. Much to our sorrow Miss 0'Nea1 acquired quite a collection
